Pawprint Oxygen, a company specializing in oxygen-related products for animals, is drawing attention to the role that at-home oxygen support can play in emergency preparedness plans for dogs. As pet owners increasingly seek ways to be ready for unexpected health events, the company is emphasizing that portable oxygen products can serve as a supportive measure while a dog is being transported to or waiting for veterinary care.
Respiratory distress in dogs can occur suddenly and may be linked to conditions such as collapsed trachea episodes, congestive heart failure flare-ups, asthma, or post-surgical recovery. In these moments, the time it takes to reach a veterinary clinic can feel critical to pet owners. Pawprint Oxygen designs products intended to help owners provide supplemental oxygen at home, in the car, or on the way to professional care.
The company is clear that supplemental oxygen is meant to support veterinary care rather than replace it. The products are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent disease. Instead, they are positioned as one component of a broader emergency preparedness plan, used under the guidance of a veterinarian.
Among the offerings is a Dog Rescue Oxygen Kit, which includes oxygen canisters, a PureVent Pet Oxygen Mask, oxygen tubing, a regulator, and a travel case. Because dogs vary widely in size, the kits are configured according to a dog's weight, with options available across several weight ranges. The dog oxygen mask included in each kit is selected to fit the animal it is intended to support. Most of the company's products are available without a prescription, with the exception of its medical-grade oxygen concentrators.
"Emergencies rarely happen at convenient times, and the drive to a veterinary hospital can feel long when a dog is struggling to breathe," said Blake Dube of Pawprint Oxygen. "The goal is to give owners a way to support their pet during transport, always in coordination with professional veterinary care."
Dube added that awareness remains a central focus for the company. "Many pet owners are not aware that portable oxygen support exists for animals. Part of the mission is simply making sure people understand these tools are available and how they fit into a preparedness plan."
Pawprint Oxygen products are used in a range of veterinary-guided situations, including transport, recovery, and the management of chronic heart and respiratory conditions. The company's broader catalog includes rescue oxygen kits for both dogs and cats, oxygen chambers, concentrators, masks, first aid products, and related parts and accessories. Its offerings are trusted by more than 9,000 veterinary hospitals.
